Family Store Assistant - Napier

Details of the offer

Want to create value from donated goods?
Make a difference within your community
About the Family Stores:
Our nationwide network of over 130 Family Stores sell a range of quality donated goods, including clothing, furniture, linen, and homeware. We aren't your typical retail store; no two days are the same in terms of our customers, the number of donations received, or what you may find while processing and pricing goods to sell.
About the Role:
This role is critical to our store's success and is primarily responsible for providing our customers and donors alike with an excellent experience that leads to repeat visits. We are looking for a customer service all-rounder, with a keen eye for detail and an ability to work in a fast-paced, high stock volume retail environment. On any given day, tasks can switch between serving and greeting customers and donors on the shop floor to working in the stock processing area.
You will have a collaborative approach and be a team player as you work closely with your colleagues to achieve desired outcomes and targets.
Key Responsibilities:
Providing excellent customer service to customers and donors.
Receiving, sorting, pricing, and merchandising donated goods.
Processing sales and general money handling, including end-of-day cash up with accuracy and efficiency.
Ensuring the store is well presented, well stocked, and tidy.
Ensuring compliance with policies and standard operating procedures, including health and safety and audit controls.
Contributing to a positive team culture and general duties of the Family Stores as required.
Person Specification:
Excellent customer service skills, with sound judgement and the ability to de-escalate situations if necessary.
Resilient, positive, and people-oriented team player with a natural ability to relate to people from diverse backgrounds.
Physically fit and capable of regular lifting - this is a daily part of the role.
Capable of using various retail and communications technology such as point of sale software and tablets.
Self-managing, able to keep to task and re-prioritise as required whilst under pressure.
A clear communicator, both verbally and in writing.
An ethical approach to working in a respectful, honest, and transparent way to build trust across the family stores, upholding the values of The Salvation Army.
Comfortable working within set procedures but able to apply sound judgement when initiative is required.
Have the right to work in New Zealand. All employment offers are subject to the completion of a satisfactory Ministry of Justice clearance/police check.
Our Offer to You:
Discounted Medical Insurance with Southern Cross.
TSA discount card for discounts with various retailers such as Beaurepaires, Noel Leeming, Placemakers, and Torpedo7.
Free confidential counselling services to support your wellbeing.
Subsidised flu vaccinations.
A position within a long-standing, respected nationwide organisation.
Opportunities for growth and development.
A varied and fast-paced role in a friendly, fun team.
Enthusiastic team of likeminded people.
The chance to make a difference in your community.
Candidates should be adaptable, energetic, self-motivated, and committed to our mission of 'caring for people, transforming lives, and reforming society.'
Hours of Work: This role is a Permanent Full-Time role. Please note, Family Stores operate on most public holidays. This role will involve Saturday work.
The starting hourly rate for this role is $26.00 per hour.
This role may close early due to an increased number of applications - apply as soon as possible to avoid disappointment!
We look forward to receiving your application.
The Salvation Army is proud to be an equal opportunity employer and believes workplaces thrive with diversity.
